Ralph,
In addition to that sad new's, I heard the roof partially collapsed, due to snow weight, on the barn housing Inga's last Lippisan. Wonderful, kind, classy lady. I value to this day the wise counsel, encouragement, and support she and Tony, Sr. offered to a scared "townie" in 1975. I haven't seen her since last summer, and I would ask that you extend my deepest regrets, should you speak with her.
